im a photography student, and have to put on an exhibition in a few months. i've already shot my work for it but can't think of a good name for my display.

it consists of 4 pictures, the main theme being marriage/romance 'vs' the commercial plastic world.
i photographed a pigs heart (ick) with a plastic bride+groom (the kind you put on wedding cakes) standing on the top to juxtapose the plastic,fake side of societies view towards love + romance against the raw,harsh reality of it - a heart.

but i cant think of a title for the exhibition :confused: and it's driving me crazy. so im turning to you guys for help & inspiration :idea:

love vampy xx

"Heart felt"


... seems to work well for me...

'love is blind' but that s a bit too abstract - based on how repulsive a heart is to look at but also signifys how 'plastic/articfical' love can be and based on attraction and therefore oblivious to its ugly side ... erm actually i'll shut up now cuz that's got nish to do with anything commercial!! :blush: :D

but you need to justify why you've come up with what you have because some of the suggestions just don't make sense!

Perhaps a slight variation of RPG's ideas, and maybe not what you are looking for but here goes anyway:
